Some of my friends don’t watch or read the news because it’s upsetting. I love my friends, but I think they’re wrong. If terrible things are happening, we need to know. Self-care is important, but we need to know — so we can act. If a tiger is about to jump on you, ignorance is not self-care.

in the White House Situation Room, including Kristi Noem, Pete Hegseth, Pam Bondi, Karoline Leavitt, and Marco Rubio. “Anyone who thinks this administration is going to run out of assholes any time soon better think again,” Miller told reporters. “We have a very deep bench.”

Annals of Internal Medicine January 27, 2026. A newly published audit highlights a concerning trend: nearly half of the CDC’s routinely updated public health surveillance databases paused updates in 2025, many for six months or longer.

Once a dog learns you will chase them if they grab a certain object, that object has become a dog toy. 😂

I wonder if trump tweeting to his Nazis that she is a Somalian terrorist every fucking day had anything to do with this

Saving this for when the AI bubble bursts and we have the world’s first trillion dollar Spirit Halloween store.

No, I'm pretty sure the 2nd amendment was always just a way for rich white men to ensure that they could always massacre black and brown folks; and I'm equally sure that the fact that the descendants of those black and brown folks also enjoy 2nd amendment rights burns their asses to no end.

only the RIGHT people can have guns, you see.

Deport this piece of shit … oh and freeze his assets and charge him with election interference

I guess he just got lucky.

I will believe "the court's patience is at an end," when they start taking members of the Trump administration into custody. Not before.

I liked this still life. #ferns #lichen #moss

Also, "watch out liberals, there might be Dems in the Epstein files" = "I would never hold members of my own team to account, so Dems wouldn't either"

Wild to me that they cannot even imagine vets participating in this work and teaching people how to defend against an occupying force. Veterans are citizens too and generally we care quite a bit about the oath we took

The idea of members of communities coming together to help each other is inconceivable to them. Speaks volumes about who they are and how they think about the world and other people.

Being a migrant, and the daughter of a restaurant owner in London, I can assure you that immigration checks are a routine and fairly frequent thing… the difference they seem to want now? To make a dangerous circus of it. To drive fear into everyone.

This should be big news, but it’s barely a whisper. The Trump admin is focusing on the wrong problem. The fraud isn’t w/SNAP recipients, it’s with outside scammers. USDA let outdated SNAP cards stay vulnerable, and families lost about $555 million in food benefits, not to “cheating,” but to theft.

This is who the Whittier neighborhood in Minneapolis is named for

This is the single funniest excuse he could have come up with for not wanting to be booed in public

The fact he’ll only speak up behind their backs makes him even more despicable.

Maybe Trump will call Heidi Cruz ugly again

If it is fascism now it was fascism then but if you were wrong no need to pause to make a special effort to admit your error -- we don't have that much time now, please act right away, get organized, and then tell your followers what you are doing to stop fascism and what they too can do.

Vaccines, clean water, formula, and maternity care have flipped our society around in ways we can barely comprehend. Fuck this entire administration trying to undo that precious, life saving work.

You better get used to a lot of telling you to FUCK OFF. If you vote for that bill, you're a Nazi collaborator & we're gonna drag your worthless ass to a tribunal just like the rest of them. Don't ignore this, you spineless fucking coward. If you fund DHS, you're our enemy & we'll treat you like it.

The United States has a real problem with letting loud-mouthed little shitfucks get away with way too much because it’s just tiresome to deal with them proactively. But I also do think there’s a limit to our collective Gibbering Fuckwad tolerance.

Heyo, Chicago pals: Quick note that the executive vice president of the Bob Loquercio Auto Group is vociferously defending the murder of Alex Pretti. The auto group has 16 locations in and around Chicago, listed below. Please take your business elsewhere. www.blautogroup.com/locations/in...

I wish Democrats would start just speaking the truth: “ICE is killing American citizens in public for exercising their freedom of speech because Donald Trump wants to be a king. This isn’t about immigration—Trump wants to make it illegal to oppose him, and to stay in power until he dies.”

This #white -breasted nuthatch from Roosevelt Island, Washington DC is also the #poise #birdoftheday #birds

I don’t call ICE law enforcement. Police are law enforcement. Masked men, stalking the streets in unmarked cars harassing random people for papers and killing people who dare to record them is not law enforcement. ICE is systemically violating the law and Constitution.

"Everyone [who is white and agrees with me] should have a gun." They don't say it because it's assumed whenever the subject is "rights."

That's about the most Putin thing the republicans have put in writing that I have seen so far. Putin: I will cease fire if Ukraine gives up the land we violently took from them. Trump/Bondi: We will stop killing your people if you give us your peoples private data

Am I right to assume that the Bondi letter to Walz can be used against the admin in court to show that the ICE deployments aren't actually vital to national security or any such bullshit?

I am seeing quite a few nurses calling for a nationwide strike over the killing of Alex Pretti. I think we are seeing one of the largest workforces being radicalized before our very eyes.

📌We must never forget how quickly all these pathetic universities, corporations, and media outlets surrendered to this murdering fascist regime greasing the skids for all this.

The appropriations bill must be passed by 60 votes in the Senate on Friday, Jan 30. If you are not calling your Senators right now and screaming at them, I don't know what to tell you. You do not have to be polite when calling. We are being murdered. Politeness is out the fucking window

Swedish tram built in 1924 photographed at museum tramway in Malmköping, years ago. Used in regular traffic until 1959, for infrastructure maintenance like snow plowing until 1989 when it was backdated to 50s look and then used as veteran vehicle.

Ive seen multiple politicians publish little letters about their outrage. And i need all of them to shut the fuck up and do their jobs. They are the government. They are the ones with the most ability to stop this. Stop tweeting and start locking these fuckers up.

8 ice Gestapo thugs assaulting 1 person, on the ground, hopeless. Then they murder him. Watch the lying fascist con men try to spin it. Right-wing postmodernism and moral collapse in action. There is no coming back from this.

Star Tribune confirms the man shot by ICE this morning is dead. ICE reportedly tried to order MPD to leave the scene but the chief of police refused and preserved the scene. BCA reportedly en route.

“Many of the focus group accidentally ate the ballots or gave themselves paper cuts on their eyeballs, somewhat confounding the result…”

Two days ago, 7 democrats voted to fund that execution

ICE has now carried out two summary executions of innocent people in the streets of an American city. If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.
